Graduate assistantship in tree ecophysiology available at the University of
Maine. I am seeking a MS or Ph.D. student to join our research program
studying the influence of past and future climate change and management
options on the tree species composition of the Acadian forest. The Acadian
forest occupies a tension zone between the boreal forest and the eastern
deciduous forest providing an excellent setting for investigating the
ecophysiology of range-limits, competition, species migrations and related
topics. Our current approach is studying the tradeoffs between opportunity
and stress offered by rapid shifts in environmental factors. This position
includes a stipend, full tuition and health insurance. Contact Mike Day, Ph.D.,
